Elevated Minds CIC

Elevated Minds is a Community Interest Company established in April 2019, based in Southwark, London. We deliver early-intervention services focussing on personal development, which is embedded with proven coaching methods, neuro-
linguistic programming and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy techniques. We focus on Increasing motivation and aspiration, changing
worthlessness to success. Empowering young people to have more autonomy over their lives and enabling them to self-actualise.
Eradicating the PRU to prison/unemployment/negative outcomes pipeline. Enabling achievement and reducing 'become a statistic' using a
whole family, holistic approach.

Primarily, we aim to tackle the disproportionate levels of Black and minority ethnic young people excluded from mainstream education or at
risk of exclusion. We also work with young people at the other end of the spectrum, those considered to have excellent academic outcomes and teachers, parents
and organisations supporting our young people.

At Elevated Minds, we teach, guide, share and support. We help young people and adults look inside themselves to find out for
themselves who they are. Each individual will discover what they feel about themselves, their beliefs and how to build themselves
instead of making themselves smaller. As Javell, one of our young people said, “the IDENTITY Project unleashed the real person within
him.”
